Product Features
5/3 Way Closed Center Design
The 4V230C-08 solenoid valve uses a 5-port, 3-position structure with a closed center function. When the valve returns to the center position, the working ports are blocked, helping the cylinder or actuator stop and hold its current position.
Double Solenoid Control
The double solenoid structure allows electrical control in two directions. It is suitable for pneumatic systems that require controlled extension, retraction, and center-position stopping.
1/4 Port for Compact Pneumatic Systems
With a 1/4″ port size, the 4V230C-08 is suitable for small and medium pneumatic cylinders, compact actuators, fixtures, clamps, testing equipment, and machine-side pneumatic circuits.
Closed Center for Position Holding
The closed center function is useful when the actuator needs to pause during movement. It helps reduce unwanted cylinder movement in the middle position when the pneumatic circuit is properly sealed.
Internal Pilot Operation
The internal pilot structure supports stable valve shifting under normal compressed air pressure. It helps provide sensitive response and reliable air direction control during repeated operation.
Sliding Spool Structure
The sliding spool design provides smooth movement, good sealing performance, and low friction, helping the valve maintain stable operation over long-term use.
Manual Override for Testing
The manual override function helps operators test valve action during installation, commissioning, and maintenance without relying only on electrical control signals.
Ideal Replacement for Airtac 4V200 Series Applications
The 4V230C-08 can be selected for pneumatic systems that require a 4V200 series type 5/3 way closed center double solenoid valve compatible with Airtac 4V200 Series installations.
Applications
The 4V230C-08 solenoid valve is widely used in double-acting cylinder control, pneumatic actuator control, compact lifting equipment, clamping fixtures, packaging machinery, assembly equipment, material handling systems, machine tools, pneumatic control cabinets, and small to medium automation systems.
It is especially suitable for pneumatic systems that require extend, retract, and center-stop control. The closed center structure helps hold the actuator position when the valve is in the middle state, making it useful for positioning, pausing, and controlled motion applications.

FAQ
What is the 4V230C-08 solenoid valve used for?
The 4V230C-08 is mainly used for controlling double-acting pneumatic cylinders and actuators that require extension, retraction, and center-position stopping.
Is 4V230C-08 a 5/3 way valve?
Yes. The 4V230C-08 is a 5-port, 3-position pneumatic solenoid valve.
What does the “C” mean in 4V230C-08?
The “C” refers to closed center. In the center position, the working ports are blocked to help stop and hold the actuator position.
Is 4V230C-08 a double solenoid valve?
Yes. The 4V230C-08 uses double solenoid control for two-direction electrical switching.
What is the port size of 4V230C-08?
The standard port size is 1/4″, suitable for small and medium pneumatic cylinder and actuator control systems.
Can 4V230C-08 be used for cylinder positioning?
Yes. The closed center structure can help stop the cylinder in its current position, but actual holding performance also depends on air leakage, cylinder load, seals, and system design.
Is this valve interchangeable with Airtac 4V200 Series?
The 4V230C-08 is designed for 4V200 series type pneumatic valve applications and can be selected for systems using Airtac 4V200 Series style valves.
Does the 4V230C-08 need lubrication?
In clean compressed air systems, additional oil lubrication is generally not required.
